- Mechanics -> Efficiency
- Strength -> Power
- Efficiency + Power = Game Speed
- Consistency with fundamentals is the biggest difference between NUT 2010 and NUT 2015, top end talent is similar.
- Maybe depth is 2nd biggest difference.
- Idris thinks people are bad at cutting. I think he's probably right, but I think it's hard to blame them since they were taught poorly.
- Cutting is hard to teach. How do you shed light on something so nuanced that looks so simple at first glance?
- Why do people make terrible throwing decisions in drills? Seems counter-productive. Good decision/bad execution seems desirable. Not so much bad decisions/good execution.
- One's own definition of "working hard"is probably based on a very narrow perception of what it means to do so.
- Maintain outside shoulder positioning. Bid with inside hand, avoid contact as much as possible.
- "10,000 hours" is a lie. I'm told it's more like somewhere between 7,000 and 40,000 hrs. But mastery is relative and often subjective, so do what you feel.
- You're never done anyway. When the list of things to work on gets short, time to retire.
- What does "ditch" even mean?
- Power level = Talent + Environment + Effort (cc Matt). Order of importance: 1. effort, 2. environment, 3. talent.
- Environment is everything at the team level. And for programs. Leads to buy-in (max effort), retention (max talent).
- Wrist speed control for new throwers.
- How do elite throwers develop?
- Anyone can be an elite thrower. Maybe you just have to walk the walk for a decade plus to do so. The road is long. The night is dark and full of terrors.
- Aim small, miss small.
- How do you master the quick release? The Holy Grail of this quest is being able to quick release wide touch passes. And add power after that. Whether it's to the break space or not is mostly irrelevant. Maybe push off both legs when pivoting is a cue. Arms can move fast.
- Natalie offseason workouts are great. But warmup and activation are mission critical. Main beef: Not enough single leg stability and force absorption in my opinion. Would add a few drills on that.
- What does an ultimate-specific throwing oriented weight training plan look like?
- How many early spring tournaments will get snowed out this year? Place your bets.
- 405, 315, @ 190
- How good can someone be, just by running really hard all the time? Pretty good, I think. If nothing else, it's a nice start.
- Attack conditioning with a hunger. You're the predator. You're also the prey, decide which mentality to bring.
- Invest in good tournament socks.
- BMW or Walden? Have a plan that plays to your strengths.
- Don't undertrain.
